Valve deciding which games they host on their own platform? Isn't that what they're supposed to do?

Right, they never stated otherwise, but transphobic measures doesn't necessarily make one a nazi. It makes you awful but there are different kinds of awful than just nazism. The risk of calling everyone a nazi is that you dilute what the word actually means so that you risk generalizing and uniting the awful people instead of separating them based on their various horrendous opinions.

What other option is there? If you can't convince them yourself, it's not like the internet has some magic bullet for making them switch to another app.

Not only that but handing over the sub to people who might be power-hungry and/or abusive. Hard to see a community you've worked for be taken over by those who don't care about it.
